ActionScript 3.0 :: Interactive Select Object & Apply Function
Nov 19, 2009
I have a couple of objects on the stage and want the user to be able to select one and then use a common set of buttons (with functions attached) to change the selected object's color, rotation, size, etc.
I've got the functions worked out, and can apply them easily as along as I hardcode the object instance names in the functions. However, I can't figure out how to allow the user to select a particular object and then pass the instance name of the selected object to an appropriate function.

/// my format I want to apply

I've been looking for a JSFL command that might do this, but haven't come across anything even remotely similar to what I'm trying to achieve. Perhaps there is another solution besides JSFL that someone might know of.Question: Is there a way that I can select multiple symbols (either in a single frame or across multiple frames) and apply a scale transform that will adhere to each symbol's registration point?
Scenario:In an animation sequence, a movieclip of a tall rectangle is tweened on the timeline using "classic" tween. There are 20keyframes, where the mc changes position and rotation.In a duplicate of that animation sequence, I want to change the height of all instances of the mc in the animation, but keep the position and rotation. The rectangle should stay a rectangle, only shorter.I go to a keyframe, select the mc, and enter the desired scale percentage for the height in the transform pane. Then I repeat this for the other 19 keyframes. Imagine the pain and suffering I go through when this is done for several sequences!
Ideally,I would want to use the "edit multiple frame" mode in the timeline, select all instances of the mc across all 20 keyframes, and apply the height transform to all mcs via JSFL or dark magic.Flash's default behavior transforms multiple objects as a group,so not only will it squash and shear the different mc instances(creating diamonds),it will also shrink the distances between the different positions(changing the path of the tweens).I'm looking for a way to apply the transform so that each instance scales to their own registration point,preserving their position and respective of their rotation.

I have a variable that increments with a button clicks. I'd like to allow a learner to be able to reset his choices and try a different combination before submitting. Any ideas why the following code doesn't recount properly after resetting?
var correct:Number = 0;
function choice1(evt:MouseEvent):void { correct = correct + 1;choice1_mc.mouseEnabled = false; }

how can i make it so that the viewer can only click on one object MC and not multiple ones. When the click the MC, i have a function that happens, but i only want one MC able to be selected at once, not all of them.so, if one is clicked, then another is clicked.. it needs to reset the first one etc. hopefully this explains clear enough the concept.

Well, I've been using flash a while, but I just ran into a newbie problem.. I must have hit some sort of hotkey, but I can't figure out how to undo it or anything in the preferences. Anyways, I'm running Flash CS4 and normally when you draw a shape and select that shape it selects the fill and it looks like little dots all over the shape when its selected. Now when I click on a shape it has a border around it and I can't just select a piece of the shape. Also, what's bothering me is that when you draw two shapes on top of each other, Flash used to merge those shapes automatically, but now they are staying separate unless I manually Union them. It still says they're drawing objects, its not converting them to symbols or anything, but they are kind of acting like symbols in the way I can interact with them. How can I turn this setting off?

hi I have created an actionscript function which stops an animation on a specific frame which works fine. I have then loaded in a php file with a variable which will contain the number for the frame i want the animation to stop on. This has loaded in fine and i have loaded it in a function. what i cant seem to do is to get the variable into the function which tells the animation to stop playing.[code]

this is a REAL basic one for you: This is my script:
count = 0;
btn_01.onRelease = function() {
if (count<=20 && this._currentframe == 1) {
_root.count += 1;
this.gotoAndStop(2);

how to apply a print function to a button, i have search through the script directory and this was all I could come up with?
on (press) {
printAsBitmapNum(_root.order, "bmovie");
}
order is the name of the movie clip. what i need is to be able to print the screen from the position where the button is situated??
This script does not print: i have played around with the settings in normal mode but there is no response from my printer.

I'm trying to find a generic way to select everything on the stage, because when I leave a frame, I want everything to fade out. But the user will be leaving multiple frames, so I would like to do it without specifying various objects depending on what frame they're on. I realize there are a lot of ways to "skin this cat", and I will fall back on something else if this isn't possible.
When I try this, I get an error, "undefined *".
Code:
stage.*.alpha = 0;

Here it goes the code:

I've an empty array and some global variables, and I have two movie clips in my library: one is a trigger, second is the movie clip that is placed on the stage when the trigger is activated (a testdummy, if you want).
var dummies:Array = [];
var i:int = 300;
var j:int = 500;
var k:int = 0;
[Code].....
...I get an obvious error : Scene 1, Layer 'actions', Frame 1, Line 66 1120: Access of undefined property dummy. Because dummies are created within a function. I don't have any trouble addressing items in the 'dummies' array though.
Though dummies are crated by the same pattern, data stored in them is the whole point of creating the application.
how can I apply a function to each of those dummies, which is executed on click and affects only one dummy?

I have a swf one one server that is pulling content from an Amazon S3 server. I have set up, for now, a generic cross-domain policy to allow all domains access:[code]These seem to be playing nicely (for the most part) as my swf is loading json, xml, etc. files from the S3 server just fine now. What it's not doing right is loading swfs from the S3 server, when it tries to do that it throws this exception:[code]I assume this is because remote swfs could contain malicious executable code. Do I actually need to set the allowDomain to something or is there some other 'more correct' way of allowing my swf to load up other remote swfs?
